CorkSol UK Recensioni 100

We used Roofx, in Eastbourne, to spray-coat the external walls of our bungalow with CorkSol, after replacing/repairing damaged areas of cement render, as an alternative to re-painting every few years. From the initial site visit through to the finished job, Peter, Leo and the team were polite, professional and helpful. The work was completed to a high standard and the site was cleaned up thoroughly. It is too soon to say if the insulation claims are true but the appearance of the bungalow is greatly improved, so worth doing for that alone. We are very pleased with the finished product.

We moved into our house in December and noticed how quickly it cooled after the heating was turned off. The loft wasn't well insulated so I upgraded the insulation and there was a slight improvement. The house walls are 9 inch, with no cavity so I investigated what would be the best solution for external wall insulation and came across Corksol, which looks like the ideal solution. I contacted Corksol to find installers in my area and had several quotes. M-G-RHODES Renovations quoted to render over the painted bricks and then apply the Corksol, which meant a lovely smooth finish with no mortar joints or Spalding brick faces.
We're really happy with the work Mark did, he and his team were really informative and I felt confident they were doing the job properly.
The finish looks really good and we've had a lot of good comments from people passing by.
So really happy how it looks, but we'll have to wait until colder weather to see what the thermal benefits are.

Lee took the 1ime to mask our home thoroughly. It's a bit early yet to say if the insulation factor has worked, but I will update my review once the colder weather returns.

Been using corksols product for multiple years and start to finish iv only recieved great service throughout

Fantastic sales and aftercare team. Product receives excellent reviews from our customers. Highly recommend

Great company, always helpful, great product

Corksol is a great product, staff is very knowledgeable and helpful, highly recommended

I have worked with Corksol for a number of years now, we find them easy to deal and knowledgeable. I am not in the habit of using products that do not work, we work for councils and house builders and the products we use have to be of the best quality. i put Corksol up there with the best products I have used throughout my 20 plus year career and years as a business owner. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Corksol to any homeowner, Council or applicator.

Shaun Ebbage / Evolve plastering and cork coatings Ltd re-plastered our house exterior walks with corksol. Issues with small cracks / rusting beading from the 15 yr old original plaster. 1 year on it all looks great / no issues. Thorough work with excellent preparation of the walls prior to application. Recommend this product/Shaun.

We have recently had the front wall of our terraced house sprayed with Corksol in heather and the result is excellent. The work was done by P.Taylor & Sons of Swindon, Manchester and they were brilliant. They also did the back wall for us two years ago in white, so I was expecting no less. The product, Corksol, is excellent and provides a lovely finish as well as benefits in terms of durability and insulation. Very happy.

I have been using corksol since 2019 I love the product and how it’s transformed my business and so many happy customers
First class product and excellent service with corksol, they are always willing to help.
100% recommend corksol uk

Shaun from Evolve coatings, based in Norfolk, was just excellent. He talked me through the whole job, explained the options clearly and was super efficient. He had his son and mate along to help with the job, all of them were perfect representatives. The CorkSol coating itself was put on very neatly, crisp edges and lovely bright finish in the ivory colour. I am delighted with the result. So good that friends who have visited are getting their own place done. I recommend the CorkSol product and Shaun as a tradesman if you’re in Norfolk or Suffolk.

Shaun Ebbage of Evolve Plastering did an excellent job of removing old paint on our house and applying CorkSol. We highly recommend Shaun and CorkSol

Extranet product!
After moving house in December we noticed how cold it was. We contacted Cork Spray Solutions for a quote to insulate our garage, utility room, entrance hall and downstairs toilet, all of which have a flat roof and single brick construction and little insulation. The price they gave us very far so we went with them. Once the work was complete (to a very professional standard) we noticed an improvement with the temperature of the house straight away.
Highly recommended.

As an X Approved Aplicator of Corksol with over 60 jobs done successfully with their product with few issues over a 5-6 year period
This review I have written about 20 times in the years I have been dealing with them but as things are so difficult in the building industry I never posted it
Untill now !!!
I would also like to apologise to the existing trades people still using their product without issue up untill there’s a problem
Prep work is extensive from pressure washing jobs to sanding back all loose and dodgy patches prior to applying a Corksol render as an applicator we do all we can to ensure there are no issues with the finished job/contract every job is prepped the same regardless
No sub contractor wants issues after the job has been completed but there has always been issues from colour variations to product consistency
Corksol was always notified, as soon as a problem arises we are instructed to take photos of buckets and bottles of colours and issuing bucket serial numbers only to hear its applicator error don’t get me wrong I think the product is good but there are issues that Corksol always put back to the applicator
From an applicator point of view you leave the job looking perfect after a number of weeks the scaffolding comes down then sometimes there’s issues with patchiness,debonding on some not all , after a period of time and the applicator has to issue photos ,videos and everything in between then we are told it’s ok or it just needs a quick tickle over the top a bit late when scaffolding has been removed and site is clean and the applicator is liable they always blame the applicator period !
If they do eventually fess up and admit there’s a problem with the product they issue material free and it’s up to the customer to try get the approved applicator to come back and sort the job out the job at their own expense
I have personally put 3 jobs right with a cost personally to my company in excess of £40000 this can’t be absorbed as a loss with any company most of us are sole traders or small Ltd companies and Corksol are not interested they will probably contest everything I say but there are hundreds of tradesmen out there that have used their products done everything in their ability to do the job correctly and it’s gone wrong the manufacturers warranty isn’t worth the paper it’s written on Corksol always blame the applicator they are just not interested then it’s up to the applicator to try sort out the problems at their own expense which is massively expensive for any tradesman/company
I have been a plastering contractor in excess of 40 years and have an excellent reputation in my area with no issues with any products but since using Corksol products I have upset so many people in a short period of time since using this product
As I said the product is good sometimes but not always I will probably take a lot of flak for this personally and Corksol will say it’s sour grapes as they just removed me from their contractor list as I replicated a Corksol product with another manufacturer I did this as I had no faith in Corksol
I haven’t dealt with Corksol for the past six months but been using cork consistently from another company
I have had an issue with this other cork product due to staining but I will sort this out .
This is just an honest view of the product and the company from my perspective after dealing with them for the past 5 to 6 years
So in short product is sometimes ok
Corksol as a company Be careful wouldn’t trust em as far as. I could throw them

Quick,efficient and tidy within the work area.The guys were polite. The end result was better than we expected.Looks very neat.Had an issue with invoice, which was dealt with immediately and rectified. Happy with the service and contact was easy.

My elderly Dad was informed by our council housing team that works would be carried out by CorkSol in the alleyway between him and his neighbour to improve the thermal performance, and to prevent heat loss and damp. I immediately contacted Danny at CorkSol as I was concerned how my Dad would cope with the noise and mess. Danny kept me informed both before, and throughout the works.
The team carrying out the work were considerate of my Dad’s needs and were there on the specified days, which meant that somebody could be there with Dad to support him. There was very little noise and no mess left behind and the walls do look very good.
But most of all I felt that we really did get the personal touch. Thank you to Danny and all the team.

We were recpmmended Corksol product. After the initial poor application by a 3rd party, we were introduced to Jamie. He visited our house and delivered what it said on the tin. The finished product has transformed the extrrnal walls.

The key is in the sheeting up process.

Corksol has transformed the finish of our detached house. Lovely textured finish in shade of pebble.

I would urge anyone considering this product to read about our experience.

We needed rendering work done on the side of our house—specifically, the side that endures all the weather, as the paint and, we assumed, the render underneath, were starting to crack. In 2021, we began receiving quotes and discovered Corksol.

After speaking to Corksol, we learned they were only the suppliers and would only allow approved contractors to install their products. They provided us with a few trained contractors, and we picked one. It was not the cheapest quote, but we wanted the best. We agreed to pay £7,500, and the work was completed.

Fast forward to early 2024. We have large sections of the render coming away from the wall. The contractor returns and informs us this is due to a leaking downpipe at the top of the wall. We replace all the guttering and downpipes, and the contractor patches the wall. We think this is the end of the matter.

Only 12 months later, in early 2025, the render is once again coming away from the wall. The contractor returns and this time states that the render is failing due to water ingress where the roof tiles meet the wall. Of course, this is exactly where the roof tiles met the wall in 2021, and no mention was made that this would be an issue. To add insult to injury, the contractor claims they are no longer using Corksol due to a lack of faith in the product and asserts he has no responsibility for the work. He is now employed but insists he would do the work “as a favour.” He agrees to come but fails to turn up on two occasions. Now he says he will do the work but refuses to provide a timeline, only after we have undertaken roof work we only have his word is needed. As I mentioned, nothing was discussed about this in 2021.

Now, let me tell you about Corksol. I have been in touch with them throughout this process and have found them awful to deal with. Despite being less than eight miles from me, they have refused to visit my house. Even though I used a contractor they trained, approved, and provided contact details for, they refuse to take any responsibility. Remember- all I have asked of them is to come and look at my house and tell me why the render is failing. They simply will not do this. All they will say is that it is nothing to do with them.

The guarantee that Corksol provides is useless. All it covers is the failure of their materials. How would a consumer know if the materials are faulty? And, for that matter, how would Corksol, seeing as they will not come out to assess the situation themselves?

We have been forced to appoint another contractor at the cost of £4K. This has been an extremely painful and expensive lesson. My name is Darren Gray. I run a recruitment business—Parkinson Gray Associates. My number is available on my website. By all means, call me if you would like to know more.
